Comprehensive Senior Care
Corporation (CSCC) celebrated its
first annual Employee Wellness Fair
at the Scotts Community Center on
Oct. 23. The event included games,
prizes, a food truck and local vendors
and organizations. Prizes included
a 50” TV, Blackstone Grill, U of M
Football tickets, AirPods and more.
CSCC, a 501(c)(3) organization
operates as Senior Care Partners
PACE (SCPP) and Senior Health
Partners (SHP). It employees over
350 team members who provide care
to those living in Kalamazoo County,
Calhoun County, eastern Van Buren
County, southern Allegan County
and southern Barry County.
Katie Klute, director of Human
Resources, shared, “I was hoping
that the Wellness Fair sent a ‘you
matter’ message to our team mem-
bers. Every day they take care of
our participants, but rarely do they
get the time during the workday to
take care of themselves. This event
gave us the opportunity to offer them
connection with each other and with
vendors that focus on aspects of
wellness, fun and games, and nour-
ishment. From what I hear, people
really enjoyed themselves and the
time they got to spend with each
other.”
Added CEO Qiana Harrison:
“Being able to see our team members
from all locations come together for
themselves and each other was a gift
to me. I’m extremely grateful for the
quality time and I’m confident that
we are on a path of whole wellness
for our organization.”
Approximately two dozen commu-
nity partners participated as vendors

First Annual CSCC Employee Wellness Fair held

at the Wellness Fair.

Johanna Baird, Benefits &

Compensation manager, shared, “I

was hoping the Wellness Fair would

give team members an opportunity to

take time to focus on their own well-

ness in a holistic manner, from spend-

ing quality time with their coworkers,

connecting with CSCC benefit ven-

dors, to learning more about services

from local organizations and business

about the impact they can have on

individual well-being.”
